Input Formats Menu
The handling of video input signals can be confi gured from the input menu,
shown below in Figure 15.
The Gefen 3GSDI to HDMI 1.3 Scaler supports Deep Color at 10 bits in the 4:4:4
confi gurations. Deep Color can be set to Automatic or Forced to 8 bits. The 8-bit option
disables the transmission of Deep Color packets. The automatic option will transmit in
deep color whenever possible, according to the EDID information of the monitor. To be able
to output HDMI 1.3 in Deep Color at 10 bits you must be using YCbCr 4:4:4 or the RGB
4:4:4 output color space (YCbCr 4:2:2 does not support Deep Color). Some monitors may
support Deep Color in only one of the possible link confi gurations (RGB & YCbCr 4:4:4),
while others may not support Deep Color at all. Verify the display device’s user manual for
color space support information.
